"There are many theories on that, but it has to do with my grandfather Pac." Iris starts, "He was so madly in love with our grandmother Telia. When mortals sought her out, and killed her. He was furious that he cursed them all. But not before he realized that he cursed himself and his family. He was able to raise Telia back and have many children. Ixie, Nera's mother was the one to raise her. Ixie like her daughter and granddaughter hold the same powers. Their all I don't have to do it if I don't want to attitude and I just want to yell at them. But the story is only a theory."
Ardeth looks at her, "I don't under how they have powers and you don't."
A sad smile spreads upon Iris's face, "Telia is a demi goddess."
"So?"
"You see Genesis." Yasmine starts, "our niece her father was human before he was allowed to become a god. Still mortality lingers in his bloodstream which it was given to his youngest daughter. Yet, not to her twin brother who is full god." Iris glares at Yasmine.
"You better not tell Néni that."
"Néni is Genesis we call her that or Genii." Yasmine explains.
"Why don't you want her to know about her brother?"
"He's Em's pride and she doesn't want Néni and Devyn to get together. Together they hold a gift that scares all the gods."
"Genii isn't anything like her mother and that's a damn good thing."
"Well, that's not right." Rick mutters, "The girl should know about her brother."
"That's the thing you want to go against the goddess of life and death?"
"Hell no"
"Then there you go."
Getting up Iris walks over the window that's wide open, her hair whips around as the wind harshly blows.
A strange feeling overcomes her emotions as she backs way slightly. Lifting her hand she streaks her chest,
"Iris?" Yasmine starts as she goes up to her cousin. "Iris, what's wrong?"
Turning to face her, Yasmine gasps seeing that Iris' eyes were no longer brown but gray. Taking a hold of Iris' hand Yasmine tries to get her away from the window.
"Let go, Yasmine." Iris hisses in a tone that was far from her know.
"Iris, fight it. Don't let it get to you."
"What's wrong?" Ardeth asks looking at Iris.
"Did that dead guy do something to her?" Yasmine asks.
"Not sure."
"Damn it all to Ace!"
Rick gives her a crazed look as he turns to his wife. "Evy, do you think-"
"What? That he stole her soul?"
Upon speaking Iris is once again in control of herself. Her dark brown eyes shine with tears as she falls down to her knees.
"I hate it when I lose control of my damn body, Isis I swear if you tempt to take over again, I'm gonna drop kick you when I get home. I don't care if Nathan gets hurt in my attempts. "Iris yells as she tries to get up. Ardeth goes up to her and helps her up, "Your sister attempted to take over your body?" He asks.
"She thinks it's funny to do so." Iris hisses as her ribs hurt, "I swear I'm going to kill her one day."
"I wouldn't blame ya'll" Ardeth grunts as he takes her to a chair.
